In 593, Shi Hui 士會 (Fan Wuzi 范武子) was made general of the Central Army (zhongjun 中軍), and Yangshe Zhi was appointed Senior Tutor (taifu 太傅). Shu Hui followed a strict constabulary policy, so that all bandit groups left the state of Jin and migrated to Qin 秦. Yangshe Zhi compared this with the ruling style of the ancient Emperor Yu the Great 大禹. Later on he served as a commander in the Central Army under Qi Xi 祁奚.
